Hollywood film 'Kaali' not about Hindu goddess






Hollywood film  'Kaali - The Warrior Goddess' is inspired by mythology but not based on the Hindu goddess, says Britain-based producer Karan Arora who plans to cast Colombian pop singer Shakira in the title role.

'Let me clarify that through this movie we are not trying to depict any mythological character. It is not the story of goddess Kali and it has nothing to do with the scriptures. It is a complete fictional story,' Arora told IANS in an interview here.

But he admits that the looks and clothes in the film are inspired by mythology.

'We definitely have a few things in common like victory of good over evil. Also, in terms of looks, clothes and costumes, the film is heavily inspired by mythology. The movie will be made in English and then it will be dubbed in Hindi and various other languages.'

To be directed by Simon Hunter, 'Kaali - The Warrior Goddess' will go on the floors in April next year and is slated for a 2013 release. The film's budget is $75 million and Arora says money will be spent on technology.
